Design

Elegant, in everything it does.

For generations, an S-Class Sedan has been instantly recognizable not just for its iconic design, but for predicting the future of the automobile. Strong, powerful and majestic, it's also lighter, sleeker, and the most athletic S-Class yet. And while it slips through the wind with ease, it stands out in any crowd. In fact, it stands above.

Enlightened, without a single lightbulb.

Intricate, intimate and impeccable, the S-Class cabin is a celebration of time-honored handcraftsmanship. Virtually every surface is richly upholstered, precisely tailored, and swathed in sweeping spans of fine wood. Along with an extensive palette of trim options, nearly 300 LEDs let you set the cabin aglow in any of seven variable hues.

Rejuvenating, in a most relaxing way.

Every element of S-Class comfort is designed to soothe and stimulate the senses. The cabin air can be double-filtered, ionized, and infused by an innovative aromatherapy system, all standard. Armrests and doors can be heated. Seats can offer a "hot stone" massage. And with four available configurations, the rear cabin is even more inviting.

Performance

Responds in the moment, accelerates the future.

S-Class powerplant choices include two Direct Injection biturbo V-8s and a pair of superlative biturbo V-12s. With stronger torque and greater efficiency, the S-Class engines accelerate the pace of progress. Each of them employs numerous advanced technologies to turn less fuel into more energy, for power to spare with fewer emissions left behind.

Reads the road, bypasses the bumps.

No matter which S-Class you choose, its suspension offers a choice of modes, adaptive damping and automatic leveling. S550 models tame the road with lightweight, quick-thinking AIRMATIC®. And the available camera-assisted MAGIC BODY CONTROL® is an industry first. It can actually see bumps ahead, and act to quell them in real time.

Turns slip into grip, and grip into go.

Optional on the S550, 4MATIC® all-wheel drive continually sends the engine´s torque to the wheels that can put it to the best use. Lightweight, nimble and efficient, 4MATIC enhances handling and performance in any season. Standard AMG Performance 4MATIC gives the S63 AMG an edge in grip and acceleration, brilliantly putting power to pavement.

No system, regardless of how advanced, can overcome the laws of physics or correct careless driving. Please always wear your seat belt. Performance is limited by available traction, which snow, ice and other conditions can affect. Always drive carefully, consistent with conditions. Best performance in snow is obtained with winter tires.

Leads with power, follows through with grace.

The 577-hp S63 AMG 4MATIC and 621-hp S65 AMG lead their class in handcrafted V-8 and V-12 power, but it's in the driver's hands where the rewards are richest. Their astounding thrust is delivered with exceptional agility and exclusive luxury. In every detail, and in every move, the flagship AMG sedans show just how exuberant elegance can be.

Technology

Responds to danger, before you're in it.

For decades, the S-Class has predicted the safety standards of the future. Today's S-Class literally looks ahead, and 360 degrees around, to spot hazards in your path. A team of standard and optional systems can alert the driver, assist in braking, and even respond autonomously to help avoid collisions with other vehicles and pedestrians.

Responds to your touch, without lifting a finger.

Dual 12.3-inch high-resolution screens combine the clarity of analog-style instruments with lifelike animated displays of driving systems, vehicle settings, entertainment and navigation. An intuitive new touchpad makes the advanced COMAND® system even easier to use, so even the most innovative features of the S-Class work like second nature.

Music from anywhere, surrounds you from everywhere.

From standard SiriusXM and global Internet radio to multiple ways to bring your own soundtrack, the S-Class offers nearly limitless listening choices. Two sound systems by Burmester®, one of the most revered names in high-end home audio, offer a choice of lush surround sound or a High-End 3D system that sets a standard in audiophile quality.
